"Arlene,
I believe that area at the 5 Corners in the 30's & 20'S was called Hell's Kitchen. I had a Great Uncle who came from there. That name was taken from New York's Hell's Kitchen on the lower east side".

You're correct, George. It was called "Hell's Kitchen" all the time I lived there, too! You could walk up and down every street over there, any time of the day or night, and smell good Italian food cooking! I adored living there when I was a kid! They were REAL people......and even though I lost my mother very young I had plenty of good, caring, Italian women looking after me!
